Draw, Iron Artists, Draw! January 17, 2008

Draw, Iron Artists, Draw!

For this live drawing competition, Austin artists pay homage to two cultural phenomena: first to Roy Lichtenstein's comic-inspired prints, on view at AMOA, and second, to Iron Chef, the Food Network program with a cultish following. Artists have one hour to create comics based on audience suggestions, and the crowd determines the Iron Artist Champion. Coldtown Theater improvisation will emcee, referee, and provide live musical accompaniment.

This event is a collaboration with Austin Books and Comics.

Artists Competing:
Dat Boi Drew- The Austin Chronicle Reader's Poll 2007 tie for Best Graphic Artist
